Did you ask her about it, or are you assuming?

Take her objection to it seriously, to start with. Really listen to what she 
has to say. It might be a fear that can be overcome - but it is not there 
for nothing.

You would be abusing here yourself if you're not carefull. I don't think 
there will be a really tantric experience for her untill she works through 
the old pain of abuse - but you cannot push her to do so for your own 
pleasure. 
Then again, she might be willing to learn and work through the old pain, but 
take her resistance seriously, and accept her pace.
 
Good luck and blessings
